Products

Mosselman Sorbitan Monooleate 10 EO (9005-65-6) are obtained by the ethoxylation of sorbitan esters. They are more hydro-philic than the sorbtanesters itself and are used as non-ionic surfactants and solubilizers for water insoluble active products and essential oils. In combination with the non-ethoxylated sorbitanesters, they can be used as emulsifiers for oil in water emulsion. Ethoxylated sorbitanesters find applications in cosmetics, detergents, lubricants, textile auxiliaries agrochemicals, etc.

Mosselman Caprylic Acid (124-07-2) caprylic acid or octanoic acid is a saturated fatty acid with a chain length of 8 carbons which occurs in coconut- and palm kernel oil.

Mosselman Amide KDO (68155-07-7, 8051-30-7, 68603-42-9) is a coconut diethanolamide obtained by the reac-tion of coconut oil with diethanolamine.

Mosselman Stearic Acid 1855 Beads (67701-03-5) is the most common saturated fatty acid occurring in natural fats. The commercial stearic acid contains palmitic and stearic acid.

Mosselman PEG 400 Monooleate P (9004-96-0) Polyethyleneglycol esters are the products obtained by the esterification of polyethyleneglycols with natural fatty acids. Depending the molecular weight of the polyethyleneglycol used and the mono- and diesters content, non-ionic esters with different HLB values are obtained. Polyethyleneglycol es-ters are mainly used as emulsifiers for oil in water emulsions. They find also application in lubricants, textiles, pesticides etc.

Mosselman Tall Oil Fatty Acids 25/30 (8002-26-4) oil is a by-product in the production of wood pulp by the Kraft process. The “black liquor” which is obtained in the purification of the wood pulp which contains the sodium soap of the tall oil fatty acids and rosin acids. By acidification a mixture of fatty acids and rosin acids is obtained. By further distillation the fatty acids and the rosin acids are separated.

Mosselman Amide ODV (93-83-4) is an oleic diethanolamide obtained by reaction of oleic acid with an excess of diethanolamine. This amide finds use in a variety of industrial cleaners where it acts as a viscosity builder, for foam boosting and foam stabilizing, as dispersing agent, emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor. Amide ODV improves the detergency of other surfactants.
